Answer:

The correct answers are 1 and 5

Explanation:

A reference point provides a position from which to measure future distance. This is possible because to measure a distance we must have a reference point at which to take the measurement. In general, any point in space takes as reference the origin of coordinates.

It also serves to detect the movement of an object, since if the distance between the object and the reference point varies, it can be determined that the object is in motion.

Which statement best defines why sound waves are mechanical waves?

Annette [7]

The correct answer among the choices presented above is option A. Sound waves are considered as mechanical waves because they require a medium in which they can travel through. A mechanical wave is a wave that cannot transmit energy in a vacuum. It needs something to move energy.<span />

Acceleration Practice

Trava [24]

Answer:

0.85 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time. In mathematically, it can be expressed as:

$\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{\vec v_2 - \vec v_1}{t_2-t_1}}$

Our final velocity is given to be 17 m/s in 20 seconds. Initial velocity is at starting point which is 0 m/s in 0 second. Therefore:

$\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17-0}{20-0}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17}{20}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = 0.85 \ \, \sf{m/s^2}}$

Therefore, the acceleration of a horse from starting point to 17 m/s in 20 seconds is 0.85 m/s²

Circuit A in a house has a voltage of 208 V and is limited by a 40.0-A circuit breaker. Circuit B is at 120.0 V and has a 20.0-A

Setler79 [48]

Given Information:

Voltage of circuit A = Va = 208 Volts

Current of circuit A = Ia = 40 Amps

Voltage of circuit B = Vb = 120 Volts

Current of circuit B = Ib = 20 Amps

Required Information:

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = ?

Answer:

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = 52/15

Explanation:

Power can be calculated using Ohm's law

P = VI

Where V is the voltage and I is the current flowing in the circuit.

The power delivered by circuit A is

Pa = Va*Ia

Pa = 208*40

Pa = 8320 Watts

The power delivered by circuit B is

Pb = Vb*Ib

Pb = 120*20

Pb = 2400 Watts

Therefore, the ratio of the maximum power delivered by circuit A to that delivered by circuit B is

Pa/Pb = 8320/2400

Pa/Pb = 52/15
